this is a VERY common phrase here, when you hear this word you may want to find a chair or bench to sit on, because it could be awhile. Not that I am complaining, storytellers like these are a dying breed.

Lucia, no it is not someone I know. There are many such faces of character on the island, if only I was comfortable taking some of the old men along our ally, forever sitting on their stoops watching the world go by, and commenting to each other. Many have a real soft spot for little D. and break into toothless smiles at her approach.

Hi! Thanks for dropping by. You blog is full of interesting things and beautiful pics. I too am a radio and books lover, and yes, storytellers are a dying breed, unfortunnately. I have a holiday house at a small village, two hours from Rome, and during the Summer I love to sit at the stoops and hear them to talk about the "old days gone".Thanks for share!Ciao
